Painless colonoscopy techniques are being increasingly used to improve the patient experience.\"However, in the case of painless colonoscopy, anesthesia is performed outside the operating room, which requires more significant peri-examination of hemodynamic changes and adverse postoperative reactions. This requires a more careful selection of narcotic analgesics, and there needs to be optimal analgesic drug guidance in clinical practice. This study compared the efficacy and safety of nalbuphine and hydromorphone in improving patient comfort and maintaining hemodynamic stability during elective colonoscopy.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>This prospective, randomized, double-blinded controlled trial included 72 adult patients (aged 18-65) who underwent sedation colonoscopy.

Then, the nalbuphine group was given 0.13 mg/kg nalbuphine, the hydromorphone group was given 0.016 mg/kg hydromorphone, and during the operation, 10-20 mg/time propofol could be appropriately injected according to the patient's examination and cooperation. All patients were continuously monitored for oxygen saturation, heart rate, and noninvasive mean arterial blood pressure. The colonoscopy time and anesthesia time were recorded.

Therefore, this study aimed to provide such in-depth analysis and compare the results to data from matched intubated VATS (I-VATS) patients. 3D-reconstruction of bronchial airways helped to estimate the risk reduction by avoiding double-lumen tube (DLT) intubation according to common selection methods in SV-VATS patients.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>SV-VATS patients receiving anatomical (N = 22) and non-anatomical (N = 16) lung cancer resections were prospectively enrolled.
